"Happiness" lyrics

"Happiness"

Love has got a hold on me
Taking all control of me
It's got the very soul of me
Soul, soul, soul, soul
Want to take you next to me
Don't want to be your enemy
Don't think this world was meant to be
No, no, no, no

Happiness is for those who don't really need it
Stop talking! I'm talking to you
Keep walking! We'll make it through
It's hot here! Not even a breeze
Trying to make friends of my enemy
Can't hear you! There's an echo on the line
I'm not near you! But you're on my mind
I'm in the desert! But it won't be long
I'm here for the atomic bomb

Teacher I'm 'a have to pray
We heard the things you have to say
But do we have to do what we want today?
The boy that's sitting next to me
Cleverness the enemy
Tell me why there needs to be a 21st century?

Hold on, hold on, hold on
Happiness is for those who don't really need it
Stop talking! I'm talking to you
Keep walking! We'll make it through
It's hot here! Not even a breeze
Trying to make friends of my enemies
I can't hear you! There's an echo on the line
I'm not near you! But you're on my mind
I'm in the desert! But it won't be long
We're here for the atomic bomb

Tonight we can be friends
Let's get down on our knees
The world won't have to end
Not tonight
Sugar, please
Please baby please baby please
Please baby please
Pleases baby please baby please

Stop talking! I'm talking to you
Keep walking! We'll make it through
It's hot here! Not even a breeze
Trying to make friends of my enemies
I can't hear you! There's an echo on the line
I'm not near you! But you're on my mind
In the desert! It won't be long
We're here for the atomic bomb
